Revelation 18:20 Rejoice over her, O heaven! Rejoice, saints and apostles and prophets! God has judged her for the way she treated you.

Will good ever triumph over evil?  Yes, because God has the final word. The Book of Revelation was written to give us a panorama as to how our civilization will wind down. In the 18^th chapter we read of the final destruction of Babylon, the representation of the world system of commerce and all the evil and injustice that comes with it.

We now live in this parenthesis called time, and it gives us an opportunity to know God the Father and Jesus Christ his Son. If we accept this relationship, we become children of God and whether we live or die, our eternity in his presence is assured. God does not bow to anyone or any schemes that man invents. He alone is God and has the blueprint for what happens next.  All the noise and activity of our world is subject to his veto power. The Holy Spirit is always speaking to confirm God’s word:

“Alpha and Omega he has declared himself to be. It matters not whether men agree or believe that this is so. He has determined a set time to dismantle the system which the wisdom of the world has built. They have enshrined Satan the evil one as King, the one they worship in opposition to my will and plans for redemption of the souls of men. But it shall not stand. Its end is already determined and I will come in my time and make an end of it all. Then my redeemed shall rejoice and be exalted together with me as I have promised. Be not weary my beloved ones, you who trust in me for I will not fail you.”
